    The Comicbook Dispatch - Dispatchdcu May 22, 2025

    Ultimates #12 is a powerhouse issuebold, thoughtful, and emotionally bruising. Deniz Camp proves once again that superhero stories can be both epic and intimate. The fracture in the team might spell doom for the Ultimates, but for readers, its a triumph of storytelling. This is thebest kind of comic: one that punches you in the gut and makes you thank it for doing so. Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke May 21, 2025

    Ultimates #12 is a thoughtful cooldown issue that re-centers the team amid rising tension and looming catastrophe. With strong character work, haunting visions of possible futures, and some truly gruesome visuals from Juan Frigeri, the issue successfully builds anticipation while keeping readers grounded in the emotional stakes. While it doesn't offer concrete answers, it leans into vulnerability and team dynamics in a refreshing way for a superhero book. Read Full Review

    The Comic Book Spot - Jack Stewardson May 25, 2025

    All and all, Ultimates #12 is another mixed bag of an issue. I wish this book had more to offer than science fiction debate. The dialogue is good, the characters are still rock solid and the art is great, but nothing happens here that I, the reader, didn't already figure out by myself months ago. Read Full Review

    Weird Science Marvel Comics - mrgabehernandez May 21, 2025

    The Ultimates #12 upends Earth-6160's status quo by tossing out the last year, acknowledging nothing works, and starting over from scratch. Every passing issue confirms and bolsters the idea that Deniz Camp was the wrong writer for this series, but at least you have Juan Frigeri's amazing art to make nothing look good. Read Full Review

    Plot
    Tony Stark assembles the Ultimates: Doctor Doom, Thor, Sif, Giant Man, the Wasp, She-Hulk, Captain America, Luke Cage, Hawkeye, the Human Torch, and America Chavez to make a shocking revelation... on the day of the battle against the Hulk, everyone died, but Doom managed to alter reality and save each one seconds before dying. He did this using The Maker's time machine, the Immortus Engine.

    Iron Lad firmly addresses Doom, asking if the real reason he saved them was to cover his tracks with his experiment to remove the time barrier The Maker put in place that prevents them from seeing the future. Doom explains that he saved them because they are the only way to fix everything, but that what they are currently doing as th more

    This book continues to be stunning in its audacity and fascinating in its originality.

    Gabe Hernandez is a whiny clown whose "look at me look at ME" style reviews ought to be wiped from this website.

    It's interesting. I like the premise, but it's delivery is a little mundane. Good twist at the end
